Low Roar is a music project from the songwriter Ryan Karazija. Karazija started Low Roar project after he moved from San Francisco, US to Reykjavík, Iceland. History Karazija started Low Roar project after he moved to Reyjkavik. Low Roar is a response to the unknown; a vivid portrait of those life-altering moments stained with equal parts hope and melancholy. His self-titled emotive, twelve song debut chronicles the challenges of starting a new in a foreign land and is an honest depiction of the struggles to acclimate, find work, and support his family in the Icelandic winter. The album’s opening lyrics ‘I won’t wake a wealthy man someday, cause the sun don’t follow me’ begin to tell Low Roar’s story. Low Roar album draws from ambient influences, especially on single, “Tonight, Tonight, Tonight,” a sultry electro-washed song, recalling late 1990s era Radiohead. The album takes the listener on Ryan’s unsettled journey conveying emotion with yearning choruses and haunting strings in simple, yet stark, classical arrangements, alongside optimistic melodies and folk-styled songs. Combining elements of post rock with minimalist tones and sonically aligning with the change and introversion of fall, Low Roar released on November 1, 2011 by Tonequake Records.
